  1. Family favorite. Usually reserved for special occasions because I could eat several pieces. And its too rich for that!!!
     
  2. So good.... don't look at the calorie count! Worth every bite! I had this at a party and people were coming back for seconds and thirds.
     
  3. Loved it. I took it to my bookgroup and they all wanted the recipe.
     
  4. This is HEAVEN! Ten stars! My mom made this and I could not believe how good it was for something so simple! Try it - you will not be disappointed!
     
  5. Yum, yum, YUM!!! This cake always gets devoured when I bring it anywhere, and is my husband's favorite dessert. Personally, I like it better with a yellow cake (I use recipe #208645) and sometimes use Butterfinger bars in place of the Heath. No matter how it's made, this cake is ALWAYS delicious!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I was born and raised for the most part in Georgia. Since 1997 I've lived in the beautiful mountains of western NC, where I spend way too much time at work and not nearly enough time camping! I have a partner of 15 years (Lee) and 3 kids--2 grown and 1 teenager still at home. Lee doesn't cook, but she's my cooking cheerleader, and she and my son will always at least try anything I make, no matter what. Camping is one of my favorite things to do. Other favorite ways to spend my time are doing beadwork, knitting, and making homemade soap. I should also admit that I spend waaaay too much time on the internet, but the bright side of that is that it brought me to Zaar! I spend a ridiculous amount of time here, but I love every minute of it. It's also has helped cure me of my pathological cookbook buying. I used to call cookbooks with full-page glossy photos my food porn. ;-) Now, thanks to all the talented photographers here, I can get all the food porn I want! I love to read recipes, which most of my friends think is just weird. I suspect, though, that a lot of you don't think it's weird at all! I love to cook, but only when I want to. I also love to entertain and wish I had time to do more of it. I love trying new recipes. I was a vegetarian (vegan, actually) for several years, and that's when I got hooked on trying so many different cuisines. I still love vegetarian foods, but I do eat some meat, fish, and dairy/eggs now. I still try to keep it healthy and eat as little processed food as possible, but I'm not totally strict about it. Sometimes I want some good old junk food--I just try to make it home-made junk, so at least I know what's in it! My pet peeve is willful ignorance. Grrrr
